Protein-tyrosine-phosphatases (PTPs), in conjunction with protein-tyrosine kinases, play
essential regulatory roles in diverse cellular activities by modulating the phosphorylation
state of target proteins. Leukocyte common antigen-related (LAR) protein is a widely
expressed receptor-type protein-tyrosine-phosphatase that is implicated in the regulation of
intracellular signaling triggered by both cell adhesion and peptide growth factors. The gene
for LAR is localized to human chromosome 1p32, a region frequently deleted in tumors of …
